EPISODE 938: HOCI POCI

Forget costumes and monsters. There is nothing scarier than an existential crisis.

POP CULTURE SPIRIT WOW

It’s Halloween this week, a time for costumes, candy, and sweet, sweet memes. In honor of the spooky season, I offer some of the fruits of of my own online trick or treating. I call them my Hoci Poci. Enjoy!

---

FOR THOSE WHO THINK THE ‘70s WERE A SANER TIME IN U.S. POLITICS

Stranger Things, you can officially !#%!% off, Love, Jimmy and Rosalyn.

---

I’M TELLING YOU, SOMETHING IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS HALLOWEEN

I’m telling you.

---

STEPHEN KING IS ONLY HAPPY WHEN YOU’RE SCARED

I hereby aspire to make this face henceforth every time someone takes my picture.

---

ALSO, HIS CHILDREN ARE EMBARRASSED BY HIM

Note that even a Stephen King Dad Joke™ involves a surprise attack.

---

AND THIS YEAR’S SCARIEST COSTUME GOES TO…

I 100% support Star Wars-related costumewear, but why is C-3PO wearing a crop top that shows what appears to be weird underwear? And my God, where are his hands???

---

WHO SAYS HALLOWEEN CAN’T BE EVERY DAY?

---

GHOST PUPPY LOVES YOU AND IS THINKING OF HOW YOU WILL TASTE

You cannot unsee his hunger.

---

DON’T YOU DARE TELL ME YOU’RE TOO OLD FOR HALLOWEEN

I also hereby aspire to be this lady.

---

BE SAFE OUT THERE EVERYBODY

---

AND FINALLY, MY FAVORITE HALLOWEEN MEME, NOW AND FOREVER

There is nothing scarier than an existential crisis.

---

I’ll be back later this week with something I’ve been working on for a long time. Really excited to finally share it.

Have a booootiful Halloween!
